Surveillance and Border Security Contractors See Big Money in Donald Trump’s Immigration Agenda

DONALD TRUMP CAMPAIGNED on a promise to ramp up border security and to deport as many as 3 million undocumented people — rhetoric that is being celebrated as a potential goldmine for some in the surveillance and homeland security contracting industry.

Leidos, Infosys, and CACI International, among the largest defense contractors in the U.S., have told investors in recent days that they are poised to take advantage of Trump’s immigration policies.

Tom Mutryn, the chief financial officer of CACI, was asked last Wednesday by Credit Suisse analyst Rob Spingarn if his firm would have an “opportunity to play a role” in Trump’s immigration agenda.
